This isn't an F1 it's a Formula SAE car. It uses an I4 motorcycle engine. I think this car used a Honda F4i motor.

Old motor 03 but you get the idea.
Output of the BMW P83 is over 900 bhp.

• Maximum engine speed is 19,200 rpm.
• In a race, engine speed is limited to 19,000 rpm.
• Idle speed is 4,000 rpm.
• The engine weighs less than 90 kilograms.
• It completes a distance of 500 kilometres before undergoing revision.
  Total production of the BMW P83 is 200 units, ten of which the team takes
  to each race.
• Before being phased out the engine will have received 1,388 upgrade
  modifications.
• It comprises around 5,000 individual components, 1,000 of them different.
  The air intake volume is 1,995 cubic metres per hour.
• Maximum piston acceleration is 10,000g.
• Piston speed peaks at 40 metres per second and averages 25 metres per
  second.
• Exhaust temperatures of up to 950 degrees are reached.
• Maximum air temperature in the pneumatic system is 250 degrees.
• The ultra-high-speed 130R turn at Suzuka with its lateral load of 4g poses
  the greatest challenge to the oil system.
• The BMW P83 endured the highest full-throttle proportion on the Monza
  circuit at 73 per cent per lap.
• At the Monaco Grand Prix, the transmission and engine have to withstand
  an average 3,100 gear changes.
• The engine block and cylinder head are made of cast aluminium and are
  manufactured at the BMW Formula One foundry in Landshut using a
  special thin-wall casting method.
• BMW Munich handles, among other things the manufacture of the
  crankshaft (steel), camshaft (case-hardened steel) and camshaft covers, as
  well as processing of the cylinder head and crankcase. The oil system and
  engine electronics also stem from BMW Munich

First F4i engine I have seen using two headers with that big of collectors... I think you might be incorrect, take another look.
